Hey guys, I finally got my celestial gear with hoelbrak runes set save for a few accessories I may need to get. I could use whatever guidance you can give me. I use bombs, grenades and a tool kit by the way.
I would recommend using berserker accessories until you have ascended celestial accessories. Even then, taking ascended berserker is pretty good too. What made you decide to run bomb and grenade together? It might be better to take one or the other, and take another utility instead. I take elixir s, gives me a good escape and easy stomp. However, I mostly do solo or duo roaming, so that could change things a bit.
I am not quite sure why I picked bombs and nades though I think it may have something to do to having both skills at the touch of a key whether I go zerging with a group or roaming. And when I tried zerkers, it didn’t really do much for me in terms of survivability, though it did give me some damage. Hmmm…. I could use Elixir S or probably Rocket boots.
Well, this is the way I look at it. Any (offensive) skill that is NOT on CD is a wasted slot. I personally run grenade kit, toolkit, and elixir s. The rotation I always attempt to do starts with rifle 3 and 4, then 2, grenade barrage, swap to grenade kit and do 4 and 5, swap to toolkit and do 5 followed by 3. By then, my rifle skills just came off cooldown, and I can do it all over again. If I put bomb kit in there, somewhere I will have skills off cooldown and ready to use, but not being used. All of that aside, you also could probably make use of another defensive utility anyways.
you can always switch out a utility for your current playstyle :P
my utility bar changes about 29301x in fractals, 0x in dungeons, 593x in a night of wvw (switching out tk for bombs when i take a camp, half the time), and like 15x in a bit of pve
i only use bomb/tk/nade in… 2 places. nochtli in dry top cuz confusion is op. molten fractal end boss for the pull without ditching my fire + bomb autos.
JQ: Rikkity
head here to discuss wvw without fear of infractions
